As you continue to practice this exercise, you’ll find it becomes easier and easier to quickly reach a state of deep relaxation.

“This exercise will be performed with your eyes closed. Settle yourself in a comfortable chair, one in which you can lean back and relax. You might find this exercise even easier and more pleasant if you’re lying down, on a bed, or a couch. Make sure that your clothing is loose and comfortable, that the temperature in the room is just right, that any music or television is turned off, and that you will be free of distractions for the next hour. When you’re settled and comfortable, press the button to continue the tape.

“Close your eyes now, and settle yourself comfortably. We’ll begin by focusing on your breathing. As you become more and more aware of your breath, you’ll notice how naturally tension simply flows out of your body. Take a deep breath in ... now hold it ... just a bit longer ... and now release it. Notice how relaxing it is to let your breath out. Another deep, deep breath ... filling your lungs completely ... hold it ... hold it ... now slowly release ... feeling the tension flowing out. Each breath more relaxing. Feel relaxation flowing in with each breath in ... tension flowing out with each breath out ... relaxation in ... tension out ... relaxation in ... tension out.

“Notice now, how much more relaxed you are already. Now slowly take a breath in through your nose, and follow the stream of air inward. Feel the air flowing though your nasal passages. It becomes warmer and helps you to relax as it flows downward, through your throat, into the upper portions of your lungs. The air continues to stream downwards, filling your chest, pushing your ribs outward, expanding the cavity above your stomach. Draw the breath down until your lungs are completely full ... and hold ... and hold ... and hold ... now releasing slowly through your mouth. The stale air flows outward, upward so easily and naturally, taking all tension with it. Feel how warm the air is as it flows over your tongue and lips. Feel how much more relaxed you are.
